I vouch for DevTheHost as a customer of theirs. Both of these guys are great guys. Any problem that I had they worked double time to fix it as soon as possible. I have had only great experiences through DevTheHost.

We currently use a PHP Script Time Execution cap of 30 seconds, however CPU usage itself is not limited.

Hmmm. So if, for example, I have 5000 unique visitors and when they visit a script is run to grab the balance of the faucet from a website (like blockexplorer.com) and it takes like 1 second to do so, that would be allowed?

Because if so, I would really consider hosting my website with you guys. But I would prefer to pay upfront for a whole year.

That would be perfectly fine. You can pay upfront if you want, just shoot us an email at admin (at) devthehost (dot) com.

Did you know: DevTheHost will never close an account that does not violate our ToS without contacting the owner first? :P

We now offer domain registration in addition to our hosting plans. :)

For more secure billing, clients can now order from our Billing Panel at https://billing.devthehost.com/, which has SSL enabled for extra security.

What country are your servers hosted on?
What is the general loading time of a page? Is it still fast if there are say, hundreds of visitors on at the same time?

Our servers are hosted in the United States, and have an average response time of 70ms. (Tested with Pingdom)

Let us know if you have any further questions.

You guys should setup a referral link! especially if you are hosting a lot of faucets.

Quick Update: The Main DevTheHost website has recently been compromised and redirected to an obscene website. This is due to the fact that a hacker has acquired the password that I used on my personal NameCheap. He changed the email and password on the Namecheap account so that I could not access it. The DevTheHost.com domain was on this account(we did not host the main domain on the DTH DNS servers due to the fact that it holds the ns1 and ns2 subdomains and nameserver glue records.) We have contacted NameCheap about the issue, and they have locked the account to prevent further DNS modifications. The cpanel, billing, ns1, and ns2 subdomains have been left intact, and we are currently waiting on the NameCheap Risk Management team to start their shift so that we can regain full access to the NameCheap account. The password that was used on the NameCheap account is not used on any administrative-access accounts on the DTH cPanel server, and no customer data has been compromised. All sites hosted on DTH will continue to work, and we will have the main site restored shortly. The hacker does not have the ability to make further changes to the devthehost.com domain. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused to customers by this and hope to have it resolved as quickly as possible.

EDIT: We are working on getting a mirror of DTH's main site up while we continue to work on getting the domain back. Stay tuned for updates!
